Horsham District Foodbank

Every day people in the Horsham District go hungry for reasons ranging from redundancy through illness, benefit delay, domestic violence, debt, family breakdown and paying for the additional costs of heating during winter, to receiving an unexpected bill on a low income. The Horsham District foodbank provides a minimum of three days emergency food and support to people experiencing a crisis.All food is donated by the public and sorted by volunteers. Frontline care professionals such as doctors and social workers identify people in crisis and issue a food voucher. Clients receive three days of nutritionally balanced, non-perishable food in exchange for their food voucher. We also make time to chat and to signpost clients to other helpful services.The Horsham District Foodbank is delivered by Horsham Matters and any funds donated to support the foodbank will go specifically toward the costs of running the project.

Anyone wanting to donate food should check our website for details of what we need and how to get it to us.
